What does the second best version of the game give me extra?

[dry belfry]

Remember all the times they tried to implement various changes and then it just completely fucks up everything related to the change

Steam Audio

DLSS

the list goes on

[prisma hatch]

BSG does not have a good track record. We're all here because theres no alternative to EFT and we know it

at least for now

[dry belfry]

I've been saying

[merry swift]

That just makes the window smaller in which mr jigglepeek at whichever door he decided to sit at gets to plink you

[dry belfry]

Just wait for a AAA to make an alternative

It's gonna slap

[prisma hatch]

for ANYONE to

[kindred grotto]

lmao gon be shit

[merry swift]

Storage space mostly iirc

[prisma hatch]

I wouldnt trust a AAA, but another indie dev could easily turn tarkov into a dead game

[bold kernel]

any extra supplies?

[minor mural]

It already exists and is called Hunt: Showdown, but it's not entirely similar

[merry swift]

And more items at the start of the wipe but that's fairly inconsequential

[prisma hatch]

Thats not direct competition @minor mural

I'm talking DIRECT competition

like direct-direct... direct

[bold kernel]

wait is 18:54 day?

[open hedge]

I LIVE

[merry swift]

I think it's really hard to make a tarkov-like game tbh. I've only ever seen smaller studios have a go at it and they've all been mediocre at best

[minor mural]

I mean, you loot chads for their Mosin. You use sound queues to shoot people, you run towards gunfire. The only thing missing is a bloated, useless loot table of bullshit

[open hedge]

This chat was too peaceful without me

[minor mural]

Go bug the max gang in Chat and you'll get .... again. They are going off

[open hedge]

Where are they

[prisma hatch]

It's really not tbh. It's pretty simple. Nothing theyve done is new or difficult. It's all been done before

[dawn geyser]

Reeses pieces has returned

[dry belfry]

I'll smooch that lil man right on his lips

[merry swift]

Yet tarkov feels like its chilling in a genre of its own tho

[dawn geyser]

o

[dry belfry]

Only if over 18 tho

[merry swift]

I'm sure all elements of it have been done before

[prisma hatch]

THats what I mean by direct competition

[merry swift]

Yea I agree with you

[prisma hatch]

I've actually already replicated the cell based inventory in C++ took me like a week

[minor mural]

The only thing hunt showdown is missing is the lootable lego pieces for guns. The rest is there

[merry swift]

But you'd imagine a reasonably succesfull game without competition would draw studios in

[dry belfry]

[dawn geyser]

Reeses

[prisma hatch]

Some are already developing

[open hedge]

What

[prisma hatch]

Dont click my profile @merry swift

[open hedge]

He’s a spam bot

Ban him

[prisma hatch]

Yes

[dry belfry]

I mean

[prisma hatch]

Hit me with the hammer.

[surreal juniper]

amogus

[merry swift]

🤔

[open hedge]

You’d regret saying that if I was a mod

[dry belfry]

That Marauders game looks p cool

[prisma hatch]

But youre not

[dawn geyser]

If you say so

[merry swift]

You reckon? I think it looks horrendous

[prisma hatch]

[merry swift]

The UI looks like it came fresh out of 2008

[dry belfry]

I mean, it LOOKS terrible, but it looks cool

[dawn geyser]

[merry swift]

And the amount of bullets the enemies eat is kinda silly

[prisma hatch]

[merry swift]

I tried the cycle for a bit

Wasn't really into that either

[open hedge]

Cycle doesn’t have weapon diversity or a hook to bring you back

[dry belfry]

Deadside has been getting a lot of new regular updates with their new owners

Still far off from a decent game, but seeing the progress is nice

[open hedge]

I like the movement and combat in tarkov not the genre and cycle just took the genre and slapped in on fortnite physics

People don’t like tarkov because they like losing their shit

[bold kernel]

Does anyone have a good low risk loot run for customs

[merry swift]

Customs has no low risk loot runs

[prisma hatch]

Would people really accept competitoin to EFT? Would they try something very similar or just yell "TaRkOV cLOnE" and never try it

[merry swift]

The entire map funnels you past hotspots one way or the other

[bold kernel]

oh

where am i bruh lol

[minor mural]

Hang on

[prisma hatch]

The safest place

[merry swift]

They would. Other FPS were doom clones as well until they stood on their own legs. You can't photocopy the game but I'm sure you can use the formula and apply your own flavour to it

[open hedge]

Nobody should clone this game just like nobody should clone any game no matter what you need to Be unique or else I don’t think people should play it

[minor mural]

Skeleton. You're staring at the golden pocketwatch truck

[prisma hatch]

JK move your azz oure in construction

[bold kernel]

uhhh

i think i have the wrong customs map

[merry swift]

You sure it's the map that's wrong, not its reader?

Unless you got a pre-2018 map I think you're fine.

[bold kernel]

probanly lol

idk tho

[bold kernel]

Customs :)

is this the right one?

[open hedge]

I see a lot of people incapable of reading maps

[minor mural]

IMO this is the safest customs route

[minor mural]

No that is old, use this one

[bold kernel]

thanks

wait

where are the stashes

[minor mural]

white circles, but a few of them are death traps

[bold kernel]

uhhhhhh

which ones?? lol

[minor mural]

The ones my blue lines skip

[bold kernel]

alr

[minor mural]

the metal container, the bus depot, and the ones by New Gas and Old Gas are very dangerous

[merry swift]

Yea agreed

Passing underneath dorms is the safest but it's so far from guaranteed compared to most maps hence me saying that customs has no safe runs

[minor mural]

some would argue the substation caches are dangerous, but in my experience the edge of the map is worse

[merry swift]

If you compare it to a shoreline or interchange stash run

[bold kernel]

bro i cant read maps

no idea where i am

[inner mountain]

youre on customs

[minor mural]

you just crossed the only bridge on the map, how are you lost? lol

[bold kernel]

idk bruh

[inner mountain]

where u tryin to go

[bold kernel]

im trying to learn customs

i have no idea wtf im doing

[merry swift]

maybe

use some landmarks and orientate that way

instead of laying down and sitting on discord

we all had to learn that way

[prisma hatch]

https://thetarkovhandbook.com/Customs.html

[minor mural]

offline raids

[merry swift]

The columns in the middle of customs are great for orientation purposes

[minor mural]

run that blue route. BTW, the reason the line stops in the center of the map and doesnt keep going is because the western side of the river is worthless. So if you start west, you pick up where the blue line starts at the stashes and if you start east you just make your way to extract

[merry swift]

I really dont know why you'd stashrun on customs tho

[minor mural]

Wants to make money while learning a single map

[merry swift]

There are better maps for that

[open hedge]

Interchange has the easiest stashes

Woods stashes are hard to find so I don’t bother

Don’t care enough to learn shoreline

[merry swift]

Yea interchange stashes are just running from one exfil to the other

[bold kernel]

i died

[merry swift]

Can't miss

I've had this game since 2018 and I don't even know all the woods stashes

Or the shoreline ones for that matter

They got stashes randomly in an open field

[minor mural]

The stashes in the expansion are easy enough. Fuck the old ones though...

[minor mural]

Also a great way to raise endurance and strength more so than Customs. You don't have to rat around as much and can just hold W

[bold kernel]

what are the two giant chimneys called

[open hedge]

Bruh

I just call them sniper scav

[merry swift]

They look like distillation columns

[open hedge]

😳

Possible hinting at the tragedy

[prisma hatch]

They look the same. Hence twin. and theyre towers.

[dawn geyser]

pls I beg of you

[dry belfry]

He just needs a ban

He's been on some shit today

[open hedge]

That time I didn’t do anything wrong

[prisma hatch]

???

[minor mural]

Tell me you were born after 2001 without telling me you were...

[prisma hatch]

Oh, god. Dont associate me with the youngins

[open hedge]

“Oh my god did you just associate me with gen z??? The GAY people??? How dare you”

[prisma hatch]

Hold up. Now whats wrong with gay people.

[open hedge]

I’m just joshing ofc

[prisma hatch]

Youre on a roll. Sexist comments and slight homophobia now

[open hedge]

A lot of people don’t like the youngest generation because of homophobia

I was making fun of that fact

I see many older people complain about trivial stuff like that

Does anyone have a phone charger?

[open hedge]

if gay people didn’t exist I wouldn’t have any friends and I want to avoid that if possible

I’d have like 1 friend left

[fickle cobalt]

This damn game... I think I need a partner, I can't even finish the quest to get the compass, got so close yesterday then got ambushed by two player Scavs while stumbling around trying to find the exfil and getting lost...which wouldn't happen if I could finish the quest to get the compass... Managed to kill them both but died to two broken legs and bloodloss right before I could exfil. Fun times.

[violet crystal]

how is saying the word gay in any way shape or form homophobic

you idiot

[prisma hatch]

I didnt say any way shape or form you "idiot"

Stop applying your made up context to messages

[violet crystal]

i wasnt saying you did

[fickle cobalt]

Ahh yes this community...

[prisma hatch]

I would run through some tasks with you, but i wont be on until 7pm EST

[open hedge]

A bit silly aren’t we

I’d be down to do woods tasks with you at 5:40 US central time

[fickle cobalt]

4pm pst, think I could swing that.

I've got a meeting at 2:30pst

[prisma hatch]

Alright

[fickle cobalt]

Appreciate it

Is central one or two hours ahead of pst?

[open hedge]

Idk

[fickle cobalt]

Lol lemme check

[open hedge]

It’s one hour behind East coast

[fickle cobalt]

2 hours

That's roughly the same time as Doctor, we could 3 man

[prisma hatch]

I'm alright lol.

[open hedge]

I’m not a huge fan of teams but I guess if I’m empty I can make it

Depends on if one of my very inconsistently online friends is on I guess

[fickle cobalt]

Ah got it, haven't played non-solo yet so don't know how the dynamic works

I'm guessing duos is probably best

[prisma hatch]

If you want to run at 7 just shoot me a DM

[fickle cobalt]

Easier to keep track of your partner

Aight

[open hedge]

I’m mostly a fan of duos

I can tolerate a trio

[prisma hatch]

I was taught by EFT gods in a 5-man

Big squads are fun

[open hedge]

Nah too chaotic

I like hearing my enemies

[prisma hatch]

Not if the squad is good

[open hedge]

Shoreline demands my hearing

[open hedge]

Not possible with my friends

Me and one other guy carry

Which is funny because I would rather play a support role but that isn’t possible in this game so I’ve assumed team leader

Polar opposites

[prisma hatch]

I always shotcall in my squads

[open hedge]

I’ve become shotcall and point man

Despite being a support player normally

[prime comet]

yeah i'm the same in terms of i dont like playing in groups

because i can just say to my duo "are you on metal?"

in a group, that becomes chaos quick

[prisma hatch]

My game sense has been refined through extended hours of 5 man suads. you just start to "know" where your team is and isnt without asking

[open hedge]

I know where my whole team is always but they don’t know where I am

[tulip gate]

imagine not already playing realistic shooters enough to subconsciously recognize teammates 🥱

[open hedge]

My team recognition skills are very good

[prisma hatch]

Again thats for HIGH level squads to operate like that

[tulip gate]

[prime comet]

mine arent

i've killed both hauu and gardredd in panic

[open hedge]

I memorize my teams gear and clothes on pre raid screen

[tulip gate]

bruh

[prime comet]

sorry @spiral flicker

[tulip gate]

yeah I do the same shit 💀

[prime comet]

i try to but my brains not big enough

and in dark hallways you dont have time to look at clothes

[tulip gate]

it's not about big brain

[open hedge]

I do it subconsciously

[sacred bay]

Any reserve experts here?

[dry belfry]

I'm Reserve hoss

[tulip gate]

by that point you have to just keep track of comms and where you've seen them move to

[prisma hatch]

Reserve is my least known map. I'm ike a 7/10. But i can try

[prime comet]

what i usueally run is too bland to be recognisable

[open hedge]

That’s very recognizable

[prime comet]

i've not touched reserve

[solid folio]

bright green stock, white face

pretty recognizable

[prime comet]

i still have bunker part 1 on my tasks

[tulip gate]

same 💀

[sacred bay]

How common does gluhar spawn for you? I've unintentionally learnt the whole map trying to kill the guy but he would never spawn for me in his spots...

[tulip gate]

Everytime I tried to do it a squad would nade the shit out of the control room

[open hedge]

I’ve done all reserve quests that I don’t need to buy keys for (if I have the key I do it)

[prime comet]

[sacred bay]

I played only night raids since his guards are fucking cracked at day

[dry belfry]

They change spawn rate all the time. Last I heard it was supposed to be ~33%

[open hedge]

I’d consider myself very knowledgeable on all the maps in this game

[tulip gate]

yeah they fucked me up last time I ran into them

[prisma hatch]

Hes there about 30% of the time for me

[open hedge]

Other than labs

[tulip gate]

got direct hit by a nade right after one of the guards spotted me

[prisma hatch]

Understandable. They're pro baseball players

[sacred bay]

Bro like 20 raids at least that I've been through since last night and i didn't encounter once

No way he would slip past me since his guards easily let you know they see you

[dry belfry]

Ehhhh

Yes and no

Sometimes they act stupid and tuck themselves away in the pawns and don't make a peep

[tulip gate]

they need to tone down the guard bosses grenade throwing skill then I'd be pretty cool with them

[zealous ingot]

can i get help plz

[tulip gate]

im just tired of seeing one

hear him yell

grenade lands directly on my toes

[open hedge]

I hate scaving in reserve when he’s there

[sacred bay]

Lmao same shit in my case

[prisma hatch]

With what?

[solid folio]

with?

[dry belfry]

"I'm new and don't know what to do"

[tulip gate]

[solid folio]

u mean the rapist

[open hedge]

Rb bk has no quests

[dry belfry]

This guy ain't doing no future quests

[solid folio]

if first wipe then yea

[sacred bay]

Best part is even if you run away he or the rest of the pleb army will gun you down

[zealous ingot]

i did the medkit job

[solid folio]

new quest ⁉️

[zealous ingot]

for rapist

[solid folio]

lmao

keep doin em

[prisma hatch]

Hes learning the tarkov lingo now

[zealous ingot]

ok

[solid folio]

fr

[zealous ingot]

tanks

thanks

[solid folio]

ofc

[tulip gate]

yep 💀

[solid folio]

don’t forget the “the” next time

“the-rapist”

very important

[zealous ingot]

👍

[tulip gate]

rb bk has high tier loot behind it but Chad's are probably gonna be hitting it

so

[zealous ingot]

ok weel see on youtube

[solid folio]

if it’s his first wipe he should just learn the basics and not worry bout the loot too much

[tulip gate]

but if you wanna keep it it's in the underground part of black pawn building in reserve

[prisma hatch]

Who is chad and whi is he there?

[sacred bay]

And everytime you die to absolutely anything, you must say "oh, that shit vector"

[zealous ingot]

ok bye

[solid folio]

cya chief

[sacred bay]

9/10 times it's vector killing you with the m61 rounds

[solid folio]

good luck

[solid folio]

onnggggg

[tulip gate]

no, it's important to learn loot locations so next wipe you know where to hit so you can build up money

[zealous ingot]

good luck you to

[solid folio]

.45 m61

[tulip gate]

this is my first wipe and I don't know how to loot so it's fucking me over

highest I've reached is 1.7 mil

[solid folio]

that’s after y learn the maps lol

and what to loot

[tulip gate]

which I spent on scav box so I'm broke!

[open hedge]

Real

[prisma hatch]

I'm going to get you to 17

[tulip gate]

idk I know the maps but I genuinely have no clue how to loot

doesn't take long to learn the maps

[prisma hatch]

I can teach you around 7pm EST

[tulip gate]

just felt like learning cs maps to me

[prisma hatch]

Teaching tarkov session lol

[sacred bay]

My suggestion is have a good scav karma, and use your scavs towards building your riches by just focusing on looting rare loot spawns like i did on lighthouse, got me to around 40m roubles with ease but then stopped to farm

[tulip gate]

uh I should be home then

[solid folio]

why not lol

[sacred bay]

Though this may be harder now on lighthouse since rogues automatically start shooting scavs lol

[tulip gate]

good question

[prisma hatch]

Just shoot me a DM

[solid folio]

attachments are hard to learn but everything else fairly easy to remeber

also the prices fluctuate a lot

[tulip gate]

attachments were the easiest thing for me

because I'm a gun nerd

💀

[solid folio]

lmao dam

[tulip gate]

I didn't have to learn anything for that

[solid folio]

there is like 500+ attachments or sm and my alzheimer’s memory can’t be bothered

i just remeber the meta parts

[tulip gate]

the guns and attachments are the main reason I came to tarkov

as well as the setting

[solid folio]

ye same

tarkov has arguably the best gun customization out of any game out rn

[knotty palm]

What survival rate ya all have

[tulip gate]

nah there's this game on Roblox that goes slightly more advanced surprisingly

[tulip gate]

40% last I checked

[solid folio]

name?

[tulip gate]

Deadline

[tulip gate]

Attachments are slidable on rails and since it's just a Roblox game they just add attachments whenever they want

recoil doesn't suck balls

skins are changeable

[knotty palm]

Damn, im at 22% :/

[tulip gate]

do you run solo

[knotty palm]

Mostly

[ancient thorn]

my attachment knowledge goes as far as, hm, grip make weapon less jumpy 🤔

[ancient thorn]

what are ur stats

[frail sinew]

Rat life

[barren scroll]

ew

[solid folio]

grips are good and suppressors are good

all u need to know

lmfao

[ancient thorn]

supressor make gun go shush

[solid folio]

all except like .366 suppressor

[solid folio]

exactly

[knotty palm]

Not at pc rn but about 1000 raids, 200 surived, 2kd and like 0.5 pmc kd, first wipe 550 hours

@ancient thorn

[barren scroll]

Someone have troubles with finding morphine? Like...tank batteries. tetriz etc for me is more common

[solid folio]

customs crackhouse

[knotty palm]

This guy has 40

[open hedge]

Mine is 33%

[ancient thorn]

he probably runs teams

everyone that runs solos is under 30%

its a rule

[knotty palm]

Lmao

[solid folio]

except this guy

[tulip gate]

yeah I got some friends I got to buy the game during Christmas

[barren scroll]

5 raids in reserve/woods looking for morphine

[ancient thorn]

bruh ?

[open hedge]

What

[frail sinew]

I solo only and am 70% = / - just dont get shot lol

[knotty palm]

[barren scroll]

what the hell is cyclon

[solid folio]

first off, reserve bad for that , second off, try the med building in reserve

[true reef]

Woulda been higher but at least 20 deaths to gung ho factory runs for quests dying until I got the quest done

[knotty palm]

U play on dead servers or wat

[tulip gate]

I need a tank battery for a prapor quest

[solid folio]

he said all solos have SR under 30 and u have 33

[ancient thorn]

bruh

[ancient thorn]

there aint no way

[knotty palm]

Not many raids tho

[barren scroll]

0 morphine 1 zagustin 5 adrenalin

[ancient thorn]

10nth wipe ?

[true reef]

True

[frail sinew]

not sure, just dont run into gun fights

[open hedge]

Oh mine would be higher if I wasn’t still a itch early wipe 💀

[solid folio]

customs crackhouse

you’ll find them ez

there

[frail sinew]

ive played on and off for ~2 years

[open hedge]

I’d reckon my sr would be 40% or maybe higher if I wasn’t still bad at game early wipe

[ancient thorn]

makes more sense

we

we're first wipe

[knotty palm]

I got 550hours in like 100 days lol

[minor mural]

For a first wipe actually engaging and defeating PMCs is excellent

[solid folio]

first wipe u develop ptsd

[ancient thorn]

mines like this

[knotty palm]

So you think 0.5 pmc kd is not that bad for first wipe?

Only mil sim I played before was insurgency lmao

That was so much easier

[ancient thorn]

hm i think thats low

im a bot and mins 2.2

[knotty palm]

I said pmc kd

[open hedge]

Pmc kd is not main kd

[knotty palm]

Not counting scavs lol

[open hedge]

My pmc kd is very bad

[knotty palm]

Its literal ai

[ancient thorn]

oook

didnt know they were sepparate

[open hedge]

I have 2100 kills and only 400 of them are pmc

[knotty palm]

Woah

Like 1200 kills and 450 pmcs

[open hedge]

I’m not very good at the game

I’ve never been good at games

I’ve never gotten above gold rank in a game

[knotty palm]

And I thought im getting fked all the time

[ancient thorn]

212 kills 57 pmcs

[knotty palm]

Someone is getting fkd more apparently

[open hedge]

I’ve never been good at things

I’ve adjusted to constant failure

[knotty palm]

💀

[open hedge]

I don’t even play ranked games anymore

[ancient thorn]

this frustrates me a bit, got to agle a few times in cs

but tarkov is a different world

[open hedge]

I genuinely don’t remember the last time I did something that I could say I did well at

[solid folio]

midlife crisis

[open hedge]

I’m 16 and I’ve already given up

it’s so competitive

[ancient thorn]

if u want to be good at something try valorant

[solid folio]

[open hedge]

Not confident in much

[knotty palm]

Try minecraft peaceful mode

[open hedge]

I find single player games too simple

[bold kernel]

They get too boring too quick for me

[open hedge]

I like a changing game

[solid folio]

[bold kernel]

25 hours

[solid folio]

hotline miami was amazing

[solid folio]

great story

not boring gameplay

[analog frigate]

When starting raid should i just wait untill all the tryhards are gone?

[solid folio]

no

[ancient thorn]

they will find u either way

[bold kernel]

If you want to avoid PvP play night time honestly

[solid folio]

u won’t get better without challenging urself

[bold kernel]

Turn gamma up

[ancient thorn]

just play normally

[solid folio]

^

[bold kernel]

And change post fx or som like that

[analog frigate]

I dont want to challenge myself atm. I want to get bit further with the guest and all

[bold kernel]

Scavs

Deleted quick

[sacred bay]

Got gluhkar to spawn finally, ofc i died to a scout.

Oh that shit vector***

[solid folio]

first wipe?

[analog frigate]

I just started playing this

[bold kernel]

That’s a yes

[solid folio]

ye just learn the basics first then

[bold kernel]

Alright understandable then

[solid folio]

before getting into pvp and modding

map knowledge, quest knowledge, loot knowledge

then pvp

and modding

[analog frigate]

Yeah thats what i have been trying to do

[bold kernel]

How’s it going

[analog frigate]

I just get killed by some sweatbabys instantly a

[solid folio]

yea thats tarkov

[bold kernel]

^^

[analog frigate]

Yeaah

[solid folio]

most people have a survival rate around 30 so dont be discouraged

everyone dies 2/3 raids lmfao

[bold kernel]

Try scaving into a raid and getting to know maps better but just don’t kill other scavs

[solid folio]

^

also offline with bots to practice pvp

offline factory with max amount of scavs

[bold kernel]

Try learning Customs, Woods and I’d say Shoreline

Customs and woods will have most of your quests at the beginning

[solid folio]

woods

GL with that

[bold kernel]

what map is best to learn first for beginner

[solid folio]

@analog frigate

[solid folio]

customs

[bold kernel]

can u dm me map

thats very easy to read

[minor mural]

You're getting bad advice. If you have a quest, your only goal is that quest. Holding W and dying in dorms is silly when you can just go there later and leave

[analog frigate]

Yeah im playing customs

[bold kernel]

Nah woods pretty easy

[minor mural]

There is nothing wrong with waiting 2-3 minutes and letting the initial wave move out or die

[bold kernel]

Yeah that is true

[solid folio]

landmines everywhere

learning it was not fun

[solid folio]

at least for me

[bold kernel]

Outside of the map and usec camp

[minor mural]

I have no idea what that emoji is. And I want to know

[solid folio]

barely any landmarks

once u get to know it yea its ez

[open hedge]

[solid folio]

but begining to learn it is tuff asf

everything is rocks and trees

[minor mural]

If you are confused and don't know where you are, you are almost certainly on the "Outskirts" third of the map

[solid folio]

w

[solid folio]

nah now im woods pro

just takes time

[bold kernel]

Then once you know these maps I’d go interchange

[solid folio]

IC is hit or miss

u either find a gpu or die to a chad

no in between

thats if ur going inside mall

lmao

[bold kernel]

I mean the other choice is Reserve or Lighthouse

[open hedge]

Interchange is huge chads and huge rats

[bold kernel]

And I’ve never been to lighthouse

[solid folio]

@bold kernel stalker series is a really good SP game

[bold kernel]

And reserve is where the chads run

[open hedge]

Nah crabs run reserve

[solid folio]

neexi u should try stalker anomaly

its free, shares alota similrities to tarkov, has a story

[bold kernel]

Was about to say that I enjoyed it

[solid folio]

oh dam

nice

[dry belfry]

Ya I camp emercom extract when I'm on work calls

[bold kernel]

I also enjoyed Metro 2033

[solid folio]

havent gotten around to trying it

[dry belfry]

Low effort $$$

[solid folio]

[bold kernel]

Lighthouse only sounds good if you are USEC

Or atleast for beginning

Also heard it has a lot of land mines

[minor mural]

i havent tried LH yet. i dont like scav runs and im a bear

[bold kernel]

3 Access cards from Scavs and haven’t been there once

[dry belfry]

LH for big hoggs only

[open hedge]

Metro exodus is good

[bold kernel]

I just don’t feel like my RFB with M80 can take ‘em on

[open hedge]

Even has a Titty scene

[solid folio]

lmfao

i started it but left for some reason

@bold kernel is insurgency worth it

cuz i cant decided weather to buy it or not

[open hedge]

Insurgency is ok

[pure talon]

[bold kernel]

Insurgency Sandstorm?

[fiery dome]

does anyone think bitcoin are going to go up again before the end of wipe

[solid folio]

ye

[bold kernel]

Have about 80 hours on that game

[solid folio]

it depends on the acctual bitcoin prices im pretty sure

[bold kernel]

I liked it

[solid folio]

tarkovs bitcoin value depends on the real world counterpart

[bold kernel]

Going down if anything

[solid folio]

is it still alive lol

[pure talon]

end of the year maybe, end of the wipe definitely not

[fiery dome]

so then bitcoin is gonna keep dropping lol

[solid folio]

probably

[bold kernel]

It has a stable player base

But it’s like 5k during peak hours

[fiery dome]

so should i sell my 8 or keep them to look at lol

[solid folio]

5.1k rn

[bold kernel]

I’d sell

[open hedge]

Somewhat I personally think it’s pretty mediocre compared to tarkov

It’s like tarkov but lower quality imo

[solid folio]

well tbf like 80% of the games out are pretty mid compared to tarkov

tarkov did something no other game has done

[bold kernel]

Because you shouldn’t be comparing games that aren’t the same genre and style imo

[solid folio]

or at least did it successfully

[open hedge]

If you want a good tac shooter team based pvp thing just wait for arenas to come out they said it would be done soon

[solid folio]

but u gotta wait for that

[open hedge]

Although bsg is not known for fur filling promises

[solid folio]

smfhhh

[bold kernel]

Didn’t they announce Aug on Christmas

[solid folio]

dunno

[bold kernel]

Honestly if it came out I would run it no matter what because of how cool it is

[solid folio]

prob would be like 200k lmfao

[open hedge]

It’s 556 tho

[solid folio]

ah true

doodoo

[open hedge]

556 last wipe was good

Now it’s

[solid folio]

yep

mostly cuz u cant buy it on flea anymore

[minor mural]

Every wipe... I remember TX-15 with M995 on reserve picking people off

and HK with 5a1

[bold kernel]

honest opinion even if the aug was added last wipe when 556 was good i think it would be treated like a revolver

[open hedge]

Last wipe might as well have been a different game

[bold kernel]

people would use it for like a week then not touch it again

Probably

[open hedge]

I like the aug but I don’t like 556 in this game

[solid folio]

i mean scar got added this wipe and its doing pretty good tho

[open hedge]

In this game my main calibers are 5.7 4.6 and 762x51

[bold kernel]

the 762 one is, i hardly see people praising the 5.56 one

[solid folio]

ah mkmk

[bold kernel]

it doesnt compete with the m4 or hk, most of the meta guns either have really fast firerates (mp7, hk, m4), or shoot really damaging rounds (mk47, akm)

the mk16 has a slow firerate and doesnt shoot that good of a round

Mosin with ps ammo B)

[solid folio]

snb

[bold kernel]

nah ps better

[open hedge]

Snb

Snb stands for (sniper with armor piercing bullet)

[bold kernel]

ps

[open hedge]

Russians are very creative

[bold kernel]

ps is better for sniping which is what i usually any gun chambered in that for

[open hedge]

Ps is not better for sniping bruh

SNB is made for the Svd which is a sniper

Snb is a “sniper” bullet

It’s in the name

[solid folio]

Ps gives +10% accuracy

but im still on the SNB side

[minor mural]

PS used to be good for farming XP

with falloff?....

[open hedge]

With falloff It cannot 1 tap thorax outside of 20m

Not to mention armor damage reduction

[bold kernel]

headshots

[minor mural]

PS was a great round if you wanted to stack scavs and earn 6000 XP, but you needed another option for PMCs

[bold kernel]

Just realised I can’t receive my VSS kit because I am gone for 5 days :(

[open hedge]

Then why not use snb

[bold kernel]

accuracy

[minor mural]

MOA as modeled in Tarkov doesn't really do much

[open hedge]

10% is like barely anything

[solid folio]

f

[bold kernel]

its noticeable out of an svd, which is what i usually run with 54r

snb is definitely good

[open hedge]

Bruh

[bold kernel]

i just 100% prefer it on factory over sniping

[open hedge]

How far are you shooting 400m?

[minor mural]

you're missing headshots on a stationary target because of accuracy?

or because you missed

[bold kernel]

401

[bold kernel]

dm me ur username and password and I can log in and claim it for you :D

I’ll give you the numbers on my cc as well

So you can upgrade the game to Edge of Darkness

for sure I got you dude

[shut parrot]

Can I borrow the cc numbers asking for a friend

[bold kernel]

11110101001

😄

if i go in offline mode and enable bosses the boss of the map will spawn 100% or is it still based on chance ?

its 100% as far as i know

[manic goblet]

can't find any good ammo on the flea 😮

no offers for m62 nor bp t_t

[bold kernel]

You can't buy those from the flea, only traders sell em

(and both of those ammo types are quest locked too)

[manic goblet]

Oh looks like i missed an update

[bold kernel]

ye they restricted a bunch of items at the start of this wipe

[prime comet]

Not allowed anyway

It’s classed as account sharing which would get the account banned I believe 🙂

[prime comet]

Most “meta” things aren’t on flea anymore

[jagged laurel]

ok

so

my scav spawned in with a mk17

and a rsass

and this happens

cheater?

pretty confident

but

[bold kernel]

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.
Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).
Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.

[silver jewel]

no, they just blind sprayed. They could be soft cheating, but its probably desync

in which case you were standing still for them

[jagged laurel]

they were a lvl 12

[bold kernel]

Probably a cheater, you did give away a lot of intel by shooting. That allowed them to prefire...

[jagged laurel]

look at time 6-8

one bullet

and I died

[jagged laurel]

they fired one bullet

[jagged laurel]

? they were never close?

[bold kernel]

can you slow down the video

i literally cannot see them peak you lol

[jagged laurel]

they never did

ever

they shot me through the wall

look at the frames

I was just shooting to scare them off if they were a player scav

[silver jewel]

i heard them full autoing

[jagged laurel]

the first bullet killed me

instantly

[bold kernel]

theres a 50/50 chance they were cheating

[jagged laurel]

ok yeah they were cheating he accepted by friend req

[bold kernel]

Yeah I was gonna say them killing you like that without cheating would have been one hell of a wallbang

[twin ember]

can someone take me to reserve to do the bunker quest?

[deft lantern]

Why does this recipe exist? The crafted helmet seems worse since it has a lower richet chance

[bold kernel]

Higher armour I think

[twin ember]

its stronger

[bold kernel]

That is why

Do rouges count as scav kills for say tarkov shooter part 2

[twin ember]

they count as bosses if im not mistaken

[white birch]

i heard cheating is getting worse

so its probably a good chance he is

[silver scroll]

You’d be better off saving the sewing kit and putting towards barters.. Ragman has a decent armored rig you can use it on

[solemn raptor]

the first one has class 1, the other one has class 3. Pretty big difference in terms of what ammo they can stop. But it is true, that the class 1 has higher ricochet chance, meaning that against high end ammo the class 1 is actually better than class 3.

[white birch]

ive been on fence for the last 16 hours buying gear

i bought a scar last night it was sick

[solemn raptor]

does it get used up? thought the tool status made it not disappear?

[minor mural]

Rogues are absolutely counted as scavs @bold kernel . I kliled a few and they counted fo ra kill scavs quest

[bold kernel]

Thank you makes the quest kinda easier to get done then

[twin ember]

im not sure, i just know they are counted as bosses on overall page

[minor mural]

"bosses" denotes a scav that gives extra XP, but they are counted as scavs for quests

[silver scroll]

Yeah in your hideout it won’t get used up, but for the Ragman barter it will. Helmet isn’t worth it if you ask me.. just use the green helmet from Raggy for around 22k

[solemn raptor]

sure, but this invalidates your first argument. Still agree that it's not worth the trade though, that helmet is only useful if you put a faceshield on.

[silver scroll]

How so? Wasn’t aware I was arguing anything lol

[unkempt hawk]

wtf r these?

[bold kernel]

Headphones

Used for the Fast helmet

[unkempt hawk]

r they rare/expensive?

[solemn raptor]

@silver scroll this ^ that the sewing kit is better off used for barters. Considering that it isn't used up it's not really going to affect how good the craft is.
It was "technically" an argument as to why you shouldn't do the craft.
I do however completely realise that I'm going on about something completely pointless considering that the discussion as to how good the trade is, is mostly concluded.

[true reef]

The tac30 is so nice

[bold kernel]

Probably like 20k flea

[prime comet]

I find this highly unlikely

Scavs don’t spawn with 2 guns ever right?

[silver scroll]

Haha right, I was just letting him know to avoid that craft entirely.

[prime comet]

Player scavs

[minor mural]

AI scavs will loot bodies to help hide their identify

[jagged laurel]

idk man

its what I spawned with

mk 17

gzhel

rsass

exfil

mightve been a bug

[prime comet]

Hm

Never seen any of that on any player scav ever on spawn

[jagged laurel]

same

[minor mural]

Not sure if you knew this about the tac-30, but the red circle in the 1x frames the scope when magnified to 4x

[bold kernel]

I have 1.11 rep with fence and h scavs am have shitty bare bones aks

[jagged laurel]

this is what my scav looked like

[minor mural]

so you can locate someone in 1x, get them in the window, and then scope in

[bold kernel]

Best in the game

[true reef]

like what I will see in 4x is inside the 1x circle?

[minor mural]

exactly @true reef

[unkempt hawk]

once you put the sugar in ur pouch its not fir

[prime comet]

I thought you said mk47

Ngl

[jagged laurel]

nah mk17 and rsass

[prime comet]

Rsass on scav is unlucky but not

[true reef]

poggers

[prime comet]

Condition too bad to use and too bad for gunsmith

Just good money

[true reef]

33k for this scope sounds a good deal

[jagged laurel]

they were both full durability

[unkempt hawk]

get on

[jagged laurel]

thats the weird thing

[prime comet]

Wild

[minor mural]

Some people dont like that the circle is "weird" and occludes the target, but once you know about that magnification trick it makes it real easy to quick scope people

[prime comet]

Tbf if my scavs were like that

[jagged laurel]

and then killed by a cheater

[true reef]

im on but i dont think i have time for a raid. gotta go to bed

[prime comet]

I wouldn’t get insane pmc loot luck

[deft lantern]

Why

[prime comet]

My scavs spawn with vpos and come out like this

Maybe 1/3 raids

[solemn raptor]

why didn't you wear the hex?

[barren scroll]

wtf, reshala can go out from gas station?

[prime comet]

Idk

[solemn raptor]

I've seen them down by the checkpoint and up in the woods next to the big antenna before.

[minor mural]

Yes, he is pathfinding his way to New Gas

if ever find Reshala in a weird spot they are heading to New Gas

good job killing him with a mosin BTW

[jagged laurel]

also wtf

[barren scroll]

i thought it was some scavs

[jagged laurel]

is this

I need to know

[true reef]

You know how some ppl buy fancy cars to compensate for small pps?

Well, that

[bold kernel]

thats worth its meta

[prime comet]

That’s something I’d make

[minor mural]

With a ROTOR suppressor? lol

[barren scroll]

mosin, no scope in a crack in a concrete fence

[prime comet]

That was my latest creation

20x scope for no reason

[solid folio]

beautiful

[minor mural]

A scoped TX-15 actually makes a lot of sense, just not in this wipe

It was a sneaky good sniper in previous wipes

M995 and whatever that loot only AP round are both headshot class 6 and travel at 1015 m/s. Pour one out for the TX-15 since fall off happened

[bold kernel]

someones mad they dont run meta

[true reef]

Can this be done through run throughs?

[prime comet]

You don’t need to extract with them all

You just need to go stand next to them for a second

[true reef]

oh

So death

[ornate owl]

is intel scav case worth?

[prime comet]

Both gates, and the cellar

[true reef]

will go run around factory naked like a mad man and hope to complete it

[prime comet]

Oh

And doesn’t have to be in one run

[true reef]

Do I need the factory key for it?

[coarse axle]

you need factory key

[true reef]

Ah

[prime comet]

No you don’t

[true reef]

Kk thanks

Oh

[prime comet]

You don’t need the key

[true reef]

[prime comet]

You stand by where you use it on the gate and the cellar extract and it’ll do it

I did this quest yesterday

[true reef]

kk I'll bring it anyways to extract

[prime comet]

[coarse axle]

ur right

you just need to stand by the door

[prime comet]

[inner mountain]

Im out of the loop a bit can someone explain why fees are janky on flea

[prime comet]

I wish I could tell you

Selling a ledx it was like 200k fee for 600k

It’s disgusting

[inner mountain]

did they change it with the RMT thing?

it doesnt say anything unless I misread it

[prime comet]

I think they did

It’s ridiculous for the most part now too

Like, I went to list a rail that was 70k

And it had a 67k fee

[inner mountain]

unless its an event?

[prime comet]

“The tarkov economy fuckup event”

[jagged laurel]

scav case

😦

[prime comet]

Wha

[marsh dagger]

do lvl 6 armor chads just normally camp camera extract door on factory for scavs? i thought chads were supposed to run around murdering

[jagged laurel]

rat chads do

[prime comet]

Rat chads exist

[jagged laurel]

your mixed up with chads

[inner mountain]

I mean they could be like level 20 with good gear

[jagged laurel]

and rat chads

[inner mountain]

it happens

[prime comet]

I tend to find them in bushes on customs

With altyns

[marsh dagger]

mmm

explains the chad on labs i ran into then behind a door

[jagged laurel]

thats labs

labs is full of rats

since intertia

[prime comet]

Yeah labs is just

Rats

[marsh dagger]

labs is full of chads running around usually is what i run into

very few rats

[jagged laurel]

:L(

what about me

[prime comet]

Because you can’t run around like a headless chicken and flick onto people

[jagged laurel]

I abuse desync

[marsh dagger]

the ppl i run into get that ps12b ash12 or the lapua .338

[prime comet]

At least I only abuse the right hand peak on every given chance

I don’t think I’ve died because Of desync yet

[bitter niche]

Anyone wanna help out on Customs? I need to get Prapor's gold damn chain and that shit is rough

[unkempt hawk]

whats the most expensive here

[bold kernel]

Salvo

[ornate owl]

is this good?

[bold kernel]

It’s okay if you run labs

[ornate owl]

worth anything

[bold kernel]

But if you just wanna sell it’s like 30k

[ornate owl]

oh aight

thanks

[true reef]

Which keys should I get rid of? I think Bunkhouse will never be used again. Not sure which one the others are anymore

[indigo badge]

does durability effect Insurance cost?

[prime comet]

I don’t think so

[indigo badge]

ok worth insuring 57 dura Zhuk ?

[hushed crow]

i would keep - 105,114,Director's, 218, gass office, gdesk, --- but it depend, behind every doors might be loot, for example room 220 is not bad too, 1 duffle, 1 jacket, but there are plenty of better rooms.

[lean beacon]

can someone teach me how to play this game and learn the maps and not die in raids as often, also i need help with quests

[true reef]

Well I just want to make space for more important keys so what could be replaced with which key to get the best rooms possible?

I just replaced bunkhouse with 110 cuz I assume its better

I also got 206 but idk how good it is

[hushed crow]

you will use it 1 time for Therapist quest, there is nothing in that room, key is basically useless

[bold kernel]

Dude what my ran on my right leg with pain meds and I ran like once and right where it make me have pain it kills me instantly

Aint that like not supposed to happen or something like the only thing black was my right leg

[prime comet]

!sherpahub

[tribal robin]

https://discord.com/invite/sherpahub

[bold kernel]

Looking at the hit box thingy and its saying that I fell when all I did was run

[prime comet]

If you’re struggling a lot, see if you can get a sherpa

[lean beacon]

@prime comet i joined it but noone will help\

[prime comet]

They’ll come with you to raid and help you learn what you need

You need to request a sherpa

[lean beacon]

I need

[inner mountain]

tbh they need to make finding those easier using the forum is archaic

[prime comet]

What’s that, sherpas?

They’re honestly good when you get one too, I had @sage narwhal show me about woods and help me out a bit when I started this wipe

And I still haven’t forgot the hours of effort he spent helping

[coarse axle]

need some help?

[tacit ferry]

do i run this

[frozen bloom]

are the levels on each map: "insane" "hard" and "normal" indicative of the Scav/NPC or the player lvl difficulty. Just got the game yesterday and there is a ton to absorb.

[coarse axle]

not really, every map isnt going to be easy

[bold kernel]

i would say save the thermal for something better

like a nice sr-25 or 7.62 mdr

[little cove]

is anyone good with computers and moving files and shit i n e e d h e l p

[true reef]

b-bro.. it's just croutons I swear

I am actually afraid of placing this offer

[stray scroll]

if my therapist ll2 goes under 0.15 will it turn into therapist ll1?

[bold kernel]

yes

[deft lantern]

why the f($!@ are you losing trader rep?

[bold kernel]

quest most likely

[stray scroll]

yea

[bold kernel]

therapist rep is easy to get

[prime comet]

Still broke?

[tacit ferry]

yes

[prime comet]

Remind me tomorrow

[tacit ferry]

y

[prime comet]

I’ll give you a decent kit

I’ve got so much good shit today it’s gross

[tacit ferry]

whatd you get

[prime comet]

2 slicks and a hexgrid

Plus loads of meta/near meta guns

[true reef]

I thought this fee was a bug but its real. Dont sell croutons

[tacit ferry]

damn

[true reef]

I sold one just to check

[prime comet]

Did you see my woods run

Yeah the fees are busted rn

Flea market is garbage

[true reef]

Yeah but 56k fee for a 20k sale crouton

[deft lantern]

How do I give myself tremors?
